2017 Map of Nome C-1 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2017

About this map

Nome serves as the focal point of this coastal survey, where the town's urban grid meets the waters of Norton Sound. The landscape is defined by its gold-rush history, evidenced by a dense network of roads and spurs that reach deep into the interior gulches and peaks. Key thoroughfares such as the Nome-Teller Highway and Kougarok Road diverge from the coast to navigate the complex terrain. The map traces the winding paths of the Snake River and Nome River, which frame the low-lying coastal flats before the elevation rises sharply toward Anvil Mtn and Banner Peak. Local heritage is visible in the placement of the Nome City Cem and the settlement at Perkinsville, while modern infrastructure is represented by the Nome Airport and Nome City Field. From the drainage of Glacier Cr to the heights of Dexter Peak, the map documents a region where industry and settlement are inextricably linked to the geography of the Seward Peninsula.
